Install Wampp server and change its port

I guess I have spent real lot of time in setting up my own localhost. Started from Sem 3, I had made uncountable attempts but ended up asking my friend to help me to set up the Tomcat environment when new Sem starts. =.=

During this few months, I got myself stuck in Wampp again. Only by this evening, I saw a useful post to help those who experiencing the same as me, which is port 80 has been occupied and wish to install Wampp in another port.  

Below are the contents:

To change the port address of Apache in Wamp server :
1. Go to \wamp\bin\apache\apache2.2.8\conf
2. Open “httpd.conf” in notepad
3. Find “Listen 80” and Change it to your desired port (for example : Listen 8081)
4. Save it and close it .

To show the starting page of Wamp Server with new changed port address :
1. Go to \wamp
2. Open “wampmanager.tpl” in notepad
3. Find “http://localhost” and replace with your given port address. For example :
· http://localhost:8081/
· http://localhost:8081/phpmyadmin/
· http://localhost:8081/sqlitemanager/
4. Save and close it .
